Where to look- 2nd hand Albion K2 Jump?

[montanna]

I have trawled google/ebay/preloved/tack shop and put wanted ads up on the local horsey fb pages... does anyone else know where else I can look for a second hand saddle? Any websites I could try?

Does anyone know any saddlers that deal in good quality second hand saddles? Either Essex area or ones that have a website/will post. Tried Martin Wilkinson but no luck.

I need a 17" Medium Albion K2 jump in VGC in black. Can't budge on any of the details, can't have MW/Brown/17.5 etc, must be as above so I am pretty picky!!

I refuse to buy one new as it's for a 4 year old who I know will change shape.

Thanks for any suggestions

I have just found a thread by a Mrs B - saying that she has some synthetic saddles for sale, but I specifically need a leather K2 as as detailed above... thanks for your help anyway.

Exactly that thanks! Am watching, but am notoriously bad at eBay bidding!

If you really want it, use a snipe. I use www.justsnipe.com
After you've registered put in the maximum you want to pay, then just forget about it. Provided the bidding doesn't go over your max bid, the programme will bid in the last few seconds of the auction. Making your bids unbeatable

Old mill saddlery usually have a few of these in their shop - they don't put second hand saddles on their web page but if you call them they can look up on their computer exactly what they have in stock.

Ditto this...when I was searching for a specific Albion I spent a few lunch breaks googling saddlers who stocked second hand saddles and calling them all.

Try saddles direct I know they have a few K2s I dont know if it's in your size, I have used them before and can recommend.

I bought my K2 jump second hand from West Essex Saddlery. They were very helpful, might be worth a call if you havnt already.
Also TDS Saddlers stock used saddles, if its not on their website you could maybe try calling them to.
